THE ENIGMATIC ARRIVAL

As the radiant sunbeams poured into the meeting room, the gentle warmth enveloped the space, creating an inviting atmosphere. As the ministers of the courtroom stepped inside, they were met with a surprising and perplexing sight. Seated upon an ornate throne, a figure adorned with an enigmatic mask commanded attention. The room fell into an uneasy silence as confusion and curiosity danced in the air.

Whispers filled the room as each of them exchanged puzzled glances. Who was this mysterious figure? What was his purpose? Was it an elaborate prank or something deeper? The air was thick with intrigue and anticipation as everyone tried to make sense of the enigma before them.

The masked figure exuded an aura of authority, his presence alone demands respect and attention. The room buzzed with whispered speculations, each person attempting to decipher the hidden message behind the mask.

As the attendees gathered, their confusion turned into a shared curiosity. "Where is King Odin ? Who dares seats on his throne?? " have we officially lost the battle against the wolves?? , "Have they come to feed on us one by one??" these were the speculations that roamed across the lips of fifty-five court attendees but they seemed to be rhetorical or did they have an answer??

"I AM GIVING YOU ONE LAST CHANCE "

And just like nothing had happened, the masked figure disappeared and King Odin fell to his knees. His face twisted in horror and shock while the rest of the men and women in the room stared at the spot where the stranger had vanished only moments ago.

"He took it" someone exclaimed.

"What the hell was that?".

Everyone gasped in shock and amazement and looked at the spot where the king seal used to be. IT WAS GONE. To
